@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Dr. Lulu Bravo, executive director of the Philippine Foundation for Vaccination: Dito sa aming almost three months na monitoring, wala kaming nakitang masamang epekto sa bakuna
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Dr. Bravo: Of course may adverse events, almost 3% ang reported. In fact, underreported nga 'yan because kung titignan mo sa clinical trials, adverse effects go up as high as 30-40%
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Dr. Bravo on reported serious side effects after vaccination: Ang nakakapag-ospital po ay yung kanilang underlying condition...Hindi kayo dapat matakot sa bakuna. Kung gusto niyong mas tumaas ang inyong kumpyansa, magpa-check up na rin po kayo bago magpabakuna
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Dr. Bravo: Ang Sinovac, ang pinkamataas niyang adverse event ay 'yung pagtaas ng blood pressure. 'Yun ay magagamot kung kayo ay mabibigyan ng inyong maintenance o hypertensive drugs
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot For the AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines, Dr. Bravo says the usual reported side effects are fever, chills and feeling of tiredness
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Will Palace fund the backpay and differential pay of previously demoted nurses in public hospitals?

Roque: We are seeking guidance from the Executive Secretary kasi 'yung kanyang memorandum na inissue ay effective June 1. Aalamin po namin ano magiging desisyon sa backpay (1/3)
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque: Hahanapan po ng DBM item sa DOH budget kung saan kukunin 'yung halaga para doon sa increase. Kampante naman po si Sec. Wendel (Avisado) na makakahanap po tayo ng pondo. Pero doon po sa back wages, mukhang wala pong sapat na funding for that for now (2/3)
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque: Pero kung ang guidance ng ES ay magbibigay ng backpay, pwede naman 'yan sa 2022 budget (3/3)
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque on inoculating the poor against COVID-19: Report naman po ni [vaccine czar] Galvez kagabi, bubuhos na ang supply [ng bakuna] mga July, August. We expect na pagbuhos ng supply, mapapasama na ang A5
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque on Rep. Alan Cayetano asking Duterte not to run for VP to protect his legacy: I'm sure the President will listen to all these well-meaning remarks, lalo na kung galing sa kaniyang dating running mate at House Speaker Cayetano

@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque on EUA of Sinopharm vaccine: Ang pagkakaintindi ko po it was granted for the 1,000 donated. So kung mag-aangkat pa po ng mas marami, I think a separate EUA would have to be given to the entity na mag-iimport niyan bit.ly/3x3bMh8
@pplmanuel @kristellimpot Roque: Dahil sa new variants, napilitan tayo mag-ECQ, MECQ at GCQ with restrictions sa NCR+ where 63% of our GDP comes from. 'Di nakakapagtaka ba't tumaas ang unemployment rate
